I've been meaning to learn other languages so that I can read books from other cultures, and countries, but haven't got around to it yet. I use to enjoy crossword puzzles, not so much anymore, probably because there not much fun anymore. Even when I was younger learning words was always something that just came easily to me. So, I actually prefer spelling games over word find games, and enjoy learning ridiculiously long words(like verisimilitude, prestidigitation, or Otolaryngologist) just so I can see if I can spell them out to myself later. I enjoy the challenge of it. Also word games where instead of guessing the words, you have to guess the definitions is also more fun for me. Also word types like anagrams, and palindromes is also where it's at for me.
